Does the Addition of Cam Newton Make the Patriots AFC East Favorites? | Did Patriots Deserve Such Harsh Punishment for Spygate 2.0? [Roundtable]

Nick Quaglia, Marv Ezhan and Mike Molyneaux come in hot with another episode of the CLNS Media Patriots Roundtable.  This Sunday, Cam Newton signed a one-year, $7.5 million dollar deal with the New England Patriots. The former Carolina Panther was released during the offseason after a slew of injuries derailed his path to success. Until New England made the decision to add the veteran QB, Jarrett Stidham was the sure starter. With this change, are the Patriots now favorites to win the AFC East? In an attempt to gather film for a documentary series "Do You Job" during the 2019 regular season, a Patriots camera crew was caught in the upper bleachers filming the Cincinnati Bengals sideline during practice. This was mere weeks before the two teams were set to face off. It took almost a year for the NFL to come to a decision on the punishment, but they decided on a $1.1 million dollar fine and the loss of a a third round draft pick in 2021. Pretty harsh for a minuscule incident. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
